"We have the scion of a powerful political family, seemingly tormented by a maddening hunger. But where Nuzzi and Hines see sex appeal, for much of the country, Kennedy is a reckless conspiracy theorist, whose appetite for danger as the nation’s top health official will result in a sicker America."
“He looked at you like he wanted to devour your soul."
"I loved that he was insatiable in all ways."
How can such ferocious desire be attached to a man like RFK Jr.? Two memoirs by the women who love him offer clues.

Was thinking about the tea brack I used to make my Auntie Mary every Christmas when I was a teen and wishing I still had that recipe. Was also thinking how I wanted to bake something using TJ's Spicy Chai Tea concentrate. So now I'm going to make a spicy chai tea brack with dates and sultanans!

I remember my very first Thanksgiving in the US. I had only been here a couple of months and didn't know much about the holiday, other than there were no classes that day. I went to the little library in the Philosophy Dept and was surprised no one else was there.

SNL needs to do a sketch of Elon trying to come up with witticisms at a party using Grok and saying really unfunny, obscene things that have nothing to do with what anyone else is talking about and making everyone so uncomfortable they leave.
Everything about this might be the saddest thing I’ve ever seen

Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

What a sicko. Anyone who thinks this man is qualified to dispense health advice needs their head checked.
RFK Jr. wants you to know that he’s personally responsible for the anti-vax misinformation on the CDC's website

He told the New York Times there’s no proof that vaccines don’t cause autism, which is a lie.

Mamdani just played Trump without sacrificing immigrants, Muslims, workers, or the LGBTQ.
Trump did his transactional charm offensive, Mamdani countered without compromising.
He won big and this is the man the Democratic Establishment still won't embrace.
